Yvonne Graves (born 10 October 1998) is an English cricketer who currently plays for Nottinghamshire and Lightning. An all-rounder, she is a right-handed batter and right-arm off break bowler. She previously played for Yorkshire.[1][2]

Early life[]

Graves was born on 10 October 1998 in Halifax, West Yorkshire. Her twin sister, Teresa, also plays for Nottinghamshire.[2]

Domestic career[]

Graves made her county debut in 2014, for Yorkshire against Surrey.[3] She only played one more county match for Yorkshire, in 2015, again against Surrey.[4]

Ahead of the 2017 season, Graves joined Nottinghamshire. That season, in a match against former side Yorkshire, Graves made 40 before being bowled by her twin sister Teresa.[5] In 2018, she made her maiden List A half-century, scoring 57 against Somerset in a 112 run victory.[6] In 2021, Graves helped her side to winning the East Midlands Group of the Twenty20 Cup, and achieved her T20 high score of 42, in a victory over Derbyshire. On the same day, against the same opposition, she also took her T20 best bowling figures, of 3/11.[7][8]

Partway through the 2020 Rachael Heyhoe Flint Trophy, Graves was called up to the Lightning squad, but did not play a match that season.[9] The following season she was selected as part of the full squad, and made her debut for the side on 29 May, against Southern Vipers.[10][11]
